BEIJING,filem lucah zul ariffin Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- The 1992 Consensus is the anchor for improving and developing relations across the Taiwan Strait, a Chinese mainland spokesperson said on Wednesday.
Zhu Fenglian, a spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, made the remarks in response to Taiwan's leader Lai Ching-te's recent comments that distorted the 1992 Consensus.
Zhu pointed out that the 1992 Consensus features both sides of the Strait orally stating that the two sides of the Taiwan Strait both adhere to the one-China principle, and was reached following authorization by both sides of the Strait and through repeated communication, consultation and correspondence.
"Its core connotation is that both sides of the Strait belong to one China and should work together to seek national reunification," she said.
The consensus clearly defines the fundamental nature of cross-Strait relations, Zhu added.
Only by adhering to the political foundation of the 1992 Consensus can cross-Strait relations sail steadily into the future, or else the situation in the Strait would become tumultuous and unstable, Zhu said, calling on Taiwan compatriots to safeguard the 1992 Consensus and jointly push cross-Strait relations back onto the right track.
